  1. [quote name='Kevin Dean' timestamp='1451664887' post='2942234'] Having to separate 1 x10s isn't going to work the same way as a 2x10 cab , I wonder of you can hear the difference ? [/quote] barefaced site suggests you could notice the difference. 2x10 cab has treble from one speaker only. if i understand it correctly.
  2. Over the next few months i'll get more of an idea how they sound single or stacked, next gig i'll use one for the first set and both for the second if the situation allows. but you know how things can sound different in a room just from the differing amounts of people in there.
  3. Well i gigged the stack for the first time last night and although both cabs haven't been run in properly yet i was happy with what i heard. Firstly the reason i got the rig. I'd always been happy with my Roland DB-700 but illness and maybe a bit of old age creeping in, oh and my Yorkville not quite being up to the job, made me start looking for something lighter and hopefully better sounding. Future proofing also was on my mind 'cos i'm not into buying loads of equipment then flogging it and buying more and flogging it and, well ya know what i mean. I'd read some nice things about Barefaced and decided to go for a One10 and with some help from Alex matched it with a Markbass LM III. After using this for practice at home at low levels i was well chuffed with the results playing with a thumb pick or fingers. My first gig with it was a small pub as a duo with drum machine doing 50's through to Bryan Adams latest offering which strangely i quite like. We play pretty loud and the One 10 had no problems. I had the cab raised by standing it on my Yorkville and i was stood almost right in front of the cab about one and a half, two feet. We started with The Moody Blues Tuesday Afternoon and i knew right away i'd made the right decision. A great big smile crept across me face. It just sounded right, the best separation i have heard in all the time i've been playing. I'm not great at describing the sound but fat and warm come to mind. Ok this is one gig and i'm confident things will only get better. The guitarist was happy with the what he could hear and never once complained about any booming which he has mentioned to me whilst using me Roland. Gig over and loading the car was most enjoyable and only involved me. I was so happy I mailed Alex to let him know and later ordered another one 10 to cover bigger venues should i need to. as i said gigged the stack last night at the same pub, really only would need one cab but had to give two a try. Sadly we had to set up in a different area of the pub but still sounded ace the amp was at just under 9 o'clock. i managed to get around 4 feet to the left of the stack at one point just to hear how it was and it was all there sounded fine well pronounced, clear and i couldn't be more happy. looking forward to playing on a propper stage and giving it a good blast. i hope this makes sense.

  5. [quote name='tonyxtiger' timestamp='1436688144' post='2819900'] The TC one is Ok, like most choruses. I would definitely try the Moog if it's deep and rich you are after. I have the cluster flux which is still my favourite out of many I've owned. Both it and the minifooger are bucket brigade so should be similar, just the minifooger is simpler. I have a warped vinyl incoming so I'm keen to see if that knocks the Moog off my board. [/quote] just wondered what you think of your warped vinyl, i'm thinking of getting one?
  6. Hi all my first post as I spotted this thread on google about Junkyard Bass Guitars. Just a bit of background, I've been playing since 1988 when a friend lent me a Westone Thunder Bass 3 [fretless] while recovered from a motorcycle accident. Over the years I've been in a few pub bands and an Elvis Tribute Act backing band, which I must admit was a lot of fun. I am completely self taught and I would say my technique is awful but I enjoy myself and get by. I currently own a Yamaha BB2000, Fender Precision, Dean Acoustic and the reason I'm posting, a custom Junkyard Bass. I've had the Junkyard around a year or so now and am very happy with it. I bought it for recording mainly but I have done the odd gig with it also. There is a Junkyard vid on YT which explains everything about Junkyard. I own the black with red scratch plate bass featured. Lets see if i can link it in this post. [url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cFGqEDtMw5U"]https://www.youtube....h?v=cFGqEDtMw5U[/url]
